Tingri County (Tibetan: དིང་རི་རྫོང་།; Chinese: 定日县) is a county under the administration of the prefecture-level city of Xigazê in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China.[2]

The county comprises the upper valley of the Bum-chu or Arun River, with the valleys of its tributaries, the valleys of the Rongshar Tsangpo and the Lapchi Gang Tsanpo which flow south into Nepal. It is bordered on the south by the main range of the Himalayas, including Mount Everest (Tib. Chomolungma), Makalu and Cho Oyu. The present county administration is located at Shelkar, about 87 km (54 mi) east of Tingri (town).[3]

Tingri is one of the four counties (the other three being Dinjie, Nyalam, and Kyirong) that comprise the Qomolangma National Nature Preserve,[4] a protected area spanning 3.381 million hectares.
